Question

Part A

A sample of ideal gas at room temperature occupies a volume of 27.0 L at a pressure of 202 torr . If the pressure changes to 1010 torr , with no change in the temperature or moles of gas, what is the new volume, V2?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

Part B

If the volume of the original sample in Part A (P1 = 202 torr , V1 = 27.0 L ) changes to 60.0 L , without a change in the temperature or moles of gas molecules, what is the new pressure, P2?

Express your answer with the appropriate units.

For a certain amount of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume have an inverse relationship (Figure 1) . This is called Boyle's law:

P1V1=P2V2
